DR.. Broom said he was the most magnifcentIy-

the champions. The thighs tapered from the

IN LOVE WITH AN Ex.CONvICT.

Strange Passion Of An Erie pal Girl For
q Hardened and Hideous Criminal.
An accomplished and beautiful girl Of II
years was arrested in Erie, Pa, while in
the company OF an old and confirmed GRIM
inal, whose personal appearance 10 almost
grotesque in it's ugliness. Rusty" Collins.
us he is known to the police OF western
cities, and the officers of the law, has spent
most of his life in prison. He returned to
Erie two months ago from serving o SEN
tence in the Allegheny penitentiary. Rosa
Trainor, while with school companions,
met the ugly ex- convict On the street. He
was pointed out to her as q late release
from prison. At frst sight she seemed 10
have conceived o strange passion for him
and she took the first opportunity to make
his acquaintance. He was wary, thinking
her attentions were . trap of some kind set
for his benefit by detectives. But she soon
undeceived him, leaving home, friends,
and the surroundings Of a comfortable
home to follow his fortunes. She was
found in his company soon after she left
her home and was taken in custody and
returned to her parents.
In her rage at being separated from him
she poured petroleum into her piano and
set fire to it, destroying the instrument and
nearly burning the house over her parents
heads. She escaped from home again a
few weeks ago, with the assistance OF her
strange lover. They disappeared then,
but returned to Erie again. James Trainor,
her father, got a warrant for their arrest
and Rosa and Rusty" were captured. He
yielded, but Rosa fought like a little de-
mon, and when her father appeared she
attacked him savagely.
Before she was seized with this strange
i~nfatuation she had borne the character Of
a virtuous and more thar ordinarily gifted
young lady, a member Of the church, and
a dutiful daughter. Rusty" explains the
case simply by saying, with a wicked leer:

Origin Of Political Phrases.

"Where do you 90 from here?"
Il go to my home in Mansheld, where I
intend to take o solid weeks rest"
You're going home to look after your
fences, Of course?"
The Senator laughed heartily.
DO you know" he inquired, how that
expression originated? No? Then I'll tell
you. While I was Secretary of the Treas
ury l came home to Mansfield for Q few
days ut one time. As Don as I got there
there was an influx of newspaper cores
pondents from all parts. Some of them
announced that l was getting ready to run
for Governor; others that l was working up
q boom for the Presidential nomination.
One of them came to me and boldly asked
me what I was doing in Ohio. It Just hap
pened that on that day l had contracted
with a man to repair som fences on my
place that were in a tumble. down condi-
ton. So when that newspaper man asked
me what l was dong in Ohio I told him
that / had come home to look after my
fences. He published what I said, the ex-
preston was taken up by the papers, and
went all over. 1t has even been used on
some occasions in the British Parliament.
It's funny how these political expressions
originate. In some city just before cleo
ton the Democrats employed an immense
number OF laborers to lay water pipes.
That's what gave rise to the expression
'layin' pipes. You remember that ut one
time the Democrats were called Locofocos.
During q Democratic meeting in New York
the participants grew SO turbulent that it
became necessary to put ont the lights.
The participants. left in total darkness,
pulled out locofocos, as the old fashioned
matches were callei. That's how that
name Observation-Disclosures ENQUIRER.

four hours yielded fifty mine pounds, after
thirty-six hours sixty six pounds, after
forty-two hours seventy.thrse pounds, and
after ffsy-four honrs seventy-six pounds.
These trials, extending from January to

The Cl0theS.Line Man.

The clothes-line man of Harlem is Q
character and holds a monopoly Of the
trade. The backyard is his stamping
ground. His lame is not known, but the
people OF the upper district call him the
Errly Bird. He is a young man, and, with
his right arm rounded with a coil of rope
and his left covered with pulleys, he comes
forth daily with the familiar cry of
Clothes Lines, penny o yard; put it up for
nothing" and haunts the big apartment
houses. To obtain an entrance into the
yards of these he is invariably obliged to
run the gauntlet of ~hari-hearted ~janitora
or owners. When he effects IN entrance
it is an easy matter to dispose of hundreds
OF yards Of line and place it before the
janitor discovers or orders him off. Speak
ing Of his strange business yesterday, the
clothes line hanger said:
Il have been engaged in the scheme fol-
several years. It's my own idea and ]
have no opposition. Yes, / often have
trouble in climbing poles, but my knowl-
edge of sea life stands me in good stead in

thousand yards Of line and half a hundred

all the fences along the back and go from
yard to yard. Business has been very good
this winter. "-New York Mail md Er-

A MOTHER writes to Babyhood that she
hes found an unfailing remedy for sleep
leasness in her young children-fresh air.
II babies are bundled up well and protected
with q sun shade they will hardly be able to
keep their eyes open out Of doors; and will
drop of to sleep quickly. She recommends
that the mothers also take refreshing e.
ercise in the open air, saying: IF l failed
to be in the fresh air sometime each day
when l was nursing o baby ! could always
see the result in increased nervousness and
fretfulness in the child" We have seen
one baby raised with the happiest results
on the plan Of taking it's maps out OF doors
all the year round. There is a ridiculous
notion that when babies are allowed to
sleep in the open air they are apt to be
troubled with wind on the stomach. There
is no sense or reason in it.-From DIR.
